Overview"This volume contains four overtures that display Rossini's talent at the threshold of his career. Composed before his 18th birthday, they show him developing orchestral skills that served him throughout his life. The ""Sinfonia del Conventello"" and the ""Sinfonia Obbligata a Contrabbasso"" were written for performance at Il Conventello, the estate of his patron Agostino Triossi, and feature the cello and the double bass. The ""Sinfonia in D"" and the ""Sinfonia in E-flat"" were composed at the Liceo Filarmonico in Bologna, where Rossini was a student from 1806 to 1809. Rossini later reworked the E-flat overture for his opera ""La Cambiale di Matrimonio"". None of these overtures survives in Rossini's hand, this critical edition has recovered the first two from recently identified manuscript copies, the others from incomplete sets of parts."
